  • Thank you! I feel I am close to success but still not there yet. This AIO includes a reverse proxy, but I already have one (NPM).

    I’ve seen and applied the docs for how to route with my own reverse proxy, and I come to the point where it’s all installed and started.

    But then - that button “open your Nextcloud↗️” does not work :'( and I think it’s because it still requires something from its own proxy? The docs aren’t clear on this.

    The logs say “failed to fetch discovery endpoint from https://cloud.mydomain.here

    I want to use a flavor of AIO that is just Nextcloud and does not expect any specific certs and proxy and stuff. Just take care of the inside stuff, and let me do the outside stuff.











  • I’m with you, and we can make quite cool things in TinkerCad. To translate my question to your shape: if you decide to have larger rotors, or longer arms, you would have to fiddle with groups for a very long time, right? In comparison, with e.g. FreeCad and a shitload of parameters, that would be quick (but you’d need to spend a lot of time defining all those parameters… but only once, though).


  • Lofts and sweeps and pockets FTW! That does look like the right solution for single objects.

    What about objects that sit at an angle relative to each other? Can you define workplanes (sketches) at arbitrary angles? Can you later slide those planes up/down, e.g. to add more distance from the face it would sit on? For instance, in the above object, the holders on the blue face are tilted 14 degrees from the blue base, and the little red holder in front is tilted an additional 5 degrees and lifted 6mm from the front of the larger red holder.


  • Yes, tapered in all directions at once. For instance one of the walkies has a rectangular base and an almost straight-up backside, but the front tapers outward. At the same time, the sides taper too, but different angle and height than the front. There are almost no right angles on these shapes anywhere, which is tedious to model.

    I’ve looked at OpenSCAD but it’s honestly too much coding for me. TinkerCad is so rewarding because it’s fast and easy to get nearly to the finish line – but I know that any kind of parametric is a win in the long run, because changing one constraint makes everything else auto-adjust rather than having to take apart and build again.
